I was just curious to see how fast some of the other members with the S-197 have gone. So far I've had mine up to 120mph.

146 with the top down. Pretty damn scary!

Same here... 140+ but backed off. Still felt as if it wanted to pull a little further.

Yeah I know huh Kayla? Hey when you guys were going over 100 was your hood shaking like it was going to fly up and hit you? Just curious because when I get going fast mine shakes and that's why I haven't pushed it to over 120. I dunno if it's gonna pop up.

Yeah, it was shaking pretty bad. I guess it's time for hood pins.

At first over 80 I used to get some hood shake. I adjusted the stops under the hood and have not seen it since. But all the same, I think hood pins are necessary at any speed with these hoods, or some extractors for heat and pressure.
